Breakfast at North View B&B

Our Sustainability Ethos

Ethical and environmentally friendly practices are at the heart of everything we do. We are committed to supporting our local community, protecting the environment, and providing a welcoming, responsible stay for our guests.

How we make a difference:

  • Locally Sourced Produce: We purchase fresh ingredients from local independent businesses, including milk from nearby farms and fruits and vegetables from the Cumbrian Farmers’ Co-op, as well as from our own garden when possible.
  • Eco-Friendly Practices: We use environmentally friendly cleaning products, recycle and compost to reduce waste, and source our energy from a British renewable energy provider.
  • Supporting Our Community: We donate 2% of our profits to Penrith Mountain Rescue, helping to keep this vital service operational. Over the past two years, our B&B has raised over £800 for the team through stays and charity events.
  • Responsible Travel: We encourage guests to explore the Lake District and Eden Valley using public transport, walking, or cycling, helping to reduce carbon emissions while fully experiencing the beauty of the area.
  • Responsible Hospitality: Every aspect of our B&B is designed to minimize environmental impact while enhancing your comfort and connection to this stunning landscape.

By combining sustainable practices with local engagement, we aim to offer our guests not just a place to stay, but a positive impact on the community and environment they visit.
